CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 68

Peter nodded without thinking, “Yes, I did. I’ll bring it over later.”

He looked at Katherine, “What do you want to have for dinner?”

Katherine was low-spirited, “I don’t know. You guys make the decision. I’m fine with anything.”

Katherine wanted to ask Peter to help her get some morning-after pills, but she shook the idea off.

It was better for Katherine to get it herself.

Peter stared at Katherine, “What’s the matter? Is your stomach unwell because of the wine?”

“No,” Katherine smiled, “I’m just a little worn out.”

Peter laughed, “You’re still tired after sleeping through the day?”

He was joking, then turned to Marshal asked what he would like to have for dinner.

Marshall was tired too, leaned on the sofa, and looked at his phone, “just called the room service, don’t feel like moving.”

He teased, “What’s wrong with you two? Both exhausted? Did you do something naughty?”

Marshal stared at Peter and didn’t say anything.

Peter quickly put away the nosy look on his face, “I’ll decide then. We’ll be eating here tonight.”

Marshal didn’t reply Peter.

Peter turned around and sat on the chair beside him. He took out his phone and ordered.

Katherine stayed in her room for a while before she got up.

She walked out of her room and said, “I’m going out. I’ll be back later.”

Peter was stunned, “Where are you going? It’s late now. Why are you going out?”

Katherine replied, “I just needed to get some air. It’s alright. I’ll be back soon. I’m going to be fine.”

Then, she opened the door and walked out.

There was a pharmacy around the corner.

Kathrine slowly walked over and bought some morning-after pills.

The pills weren’t good for her body at all.

Katherine had those pills once, and she didn’t really want to take them this time.

But she couldn’t blame Marshal for what happened, can she?

She offered herself to him.

Katherine stood by the entrance of the hotel with the pills.

It was a windy night.

She leaned against the pillar and felt bored.

Katherine didn’t want to stay in the room. She didn’t know what to say with all three of them together in the same room.

It felt awkward.

Katherine’s phone rang after she stayed in front of the hotel for a while.

She was surprised. Her phone acted more or less like a display item for her. Other than insurance agents or salespeople, no one would really call her by this phone number.

Katherine took out the phone, and she was stunned when she saw the caller ID.

She knew this person.

She picked up the phone after a while.

The person on the other end asked, “Katherine, are you with Marshall now?”

She didn’t sound nice.

Katherine didn’t say a thing.

She would have greeted this lady and explained nicely to her before.

But now? No way.

Mrs. Grant was pissed off when Katherine didn’t answer her question, “I’m talking to you, Katherine. Are you with Marshall?”

Katherine hung up the phone right away.

She tried so hard not to say anything offensive to Mrs. Grant.

Nevertheless, Mrs. Grant got even more pissed off when Katherine hung up her call.

This somehow uplifted Kathrine’s mood a little.

She put away her phone and walked back into the hotel.

Katherine saw Marshal was on the phone when she opened the door of the hotel room. After getting out of the elevator. Katherine went back to her room, when she opened the door, she saw Marshall was on the phone. It was obvious to guess who the person was on the phone.

Marshall raised his head and saw Katherine. He then said, “I told you it was not like what you have thought. I will explain it to you when I get back. I’m busy now. I’ve got to go.”

Then, Marshal hung up the phone.

Both Marshall and Katherine hung up on Mrs. Grant, but Katherine was guessing Mrs. Grant wouldn’t be mad at Marshall, but she certainly would be blaming Katherine for it, and held her accountable for everything.

Katherine didn’t look at Marshal. She sneered and walked straight into her room.
